Cat. No. 119-0P |
100 µg peptide, lyophilized. For reconstitution add 100 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Then aliquot and store at -20°C to -80°C until use. Control peptides should be stored at -20°C when still lyophilized! |
Applications |
|
Immunogen | Synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human SV2 A (UniProt Id: Q7L0J3) |
Recommended dilution | Optimal concentrations should be determined by the end-user. |
Matching antibodies | 119 002, 119 004, 119 011, 119 011BT, 119 006, 119 003 |
Remarks |
This control peptide consists of the synthetic peptide (EEGFRDRAAFIRGAKD) that has been used for immunization. It has been tested in preadsorption experiments and blocks efficiently and specifically the corresponding signal in Western blots. The amount of peptide needed for efficient blocking depends on the titer and on the affinity of the antibody to the antigen. |

SV2s (synaptic vesicle protein 2) are integral membrane glycoproteins present in all synaptic vesicles. They have 12 transmembrane domains predicted by sequence analysis. There are three characterized isoforms, SV2 A, SV2 B and SV2 C. SV2 A is expressed ubiquitously throughout the brain and is probably involved in the maintenance of a pool of synaptic vesicles competent for calcium- stimulated exocytosis. SV2 B has a more restricted distribution with varying degrees of coexpression with SV2 A. SV2 C is more closely related to SV2 A but shows a very restricted expression pattern. The highest expression levels were observed in phylogenetically old brain areas like pallidum, the midbrain and the olfactory bulb. SV2 expression has also been observed in other organs. In kidney it localizes to podocytes.
